The article I read recognized him for his contributions to the coal industry lobby and expanding horse betting. A real go-getter.
One of the more tame Republicans 😏
“He spent his life uplifting others… He was open minded to new initiatives”
Sounds like it
Since the article decided it wasn’t worth mentioning—as if it wasn’t obvious by the fact he was a republican—he was also full heartedly participating in the witch hunt against trans kids, and also the slow destruction of public libraries.
May his grave be a gender neutral toilet for many years to come. 🙏
Thoughts and prayers 🙏🏼
Why would it be worth mentioning? A person died. A medic had to climb down there and determine he was dead. He then had to climb out and tell the family that he was dead. The fire department then had to retrieve the body. The police had to write a report about what they saw on scene. A family is grieving now.
The guy was an asshole and bad person. But he was a human. Being a republican or democrat has nothing to do with death. Be a sensitive human and respect death.
He was doing his damnedest to make life unlivable for trans people, I hope he’s rotting in hell. If you want to be treated respectfully in death, don’t be a piece of shit in life.
Btw, he wasn’t found dead. It took him a while to die as the accident was a month ago. If you’re going to make up a story to try to make this dead shithead more sympathetic you could at least read the article.
I’d think being a sensitive human involves thinking of those whose lives he turned upside down and terrorized for the sake of politics, and not just going “but he wasn’t an actual monster living in a cave and had a family 🥺”
Like, did he turn democrat last minute before he hit the concrete teeth first? Or you mean that he was republican the entire time and now he’s fucking dead so nobody give a shit he’s dead and no longer republican?
Not sure if I’m correctly understanding what part of my comment you’re confused by, but I’m saying that it’s unsurprising that he is a transphobe who hates libraries because he was a republican. Past tense because he’s dead now.
Just wanted you to say it again 😁 that’s all. 🤔 Does that mean one less evil vote?
To any Republicans reading these comments and are “shocked” that we’re glad he’s gone… You will not be respected if you do not act respectably. You will be judged for your actions and you will not be missed.
“I have never wished death upon another human. I have, however, read many obituaries with a great deal of satisfaction.”
I need not tolerate those who want me dead. The only people who think that’s a paradox are fundamentally terrible people.
at 76 with a reasonable amount of wealth under his belt, I’m surprised he was even mowing his own lawn
“Now why would anybody do drugs when you can just mow a lawn?” - Hank Hill
On one hand, yep.
On the other, I usually blaze one before I start on my yardwork / landscaping.
Getting high and driving slowly in circles is the best. I miss my riding mower but do not miss having a yard that required one.
I bet, but I’ve only got a 1/4 acre, so I just push mow. Still makes a relatively relaxing task even better, though lol.
Is this how he ended up in a pool? Lol
tbh, my first thought was “oh that’s terrible” and my second thought was “maybe he was drunk?”. It’s also possible he had some kind of medical emergency and couldn’t stop for some reason.
Blaze it Raze it Praise it
I think for some people it’s like a form of meditation, especially for those with a big lawn and a riding mower. I don’t personally get it, but that’s the vibe these guys give off.
For others it is a means of escaping their family for an hour or so.
My wife’s parents have a decent plot of land and always go out for a mow when they’re bored of us. I guess it’s better than staring at their phones.
I hate the time it takes. I’m HIGHLY allergic to grass and wear near hazmat level protection.
But it requires many different skill sets including driving. This is what makes it enjoyable. The challenge to get the best look, or the most efficient mow.
Plus instant gratification. Each line looks good as you turn and come back on the next pass. And when you’re done, the whole thing looks 100% better so you get a big o’l dopamine push with your self gratification.
